[QUOTE="davey327, post: 232356, member: 6627"] OK. No we are not adopting, though would like to. Father left when they were 6 mos, drug and alcohol issues, Mom had multiple boyfriends after Dad left, drug and alcohol issues, first 23 mos speant with Mom, and us, Mom's household was a mess. She suffers from depression, is bipolar, is now doing pretty well, sees the kids every other weekend. Dad not been around for 3 mos. Have heard he may be doing some jail time. Boy goes to school and does okay, not great, has attention problems, argues with us a lot when we try to discipline, is sometimes aggresive, boy this is hard to put down in words, I don't like to see the words. Had no real problems as infant, has asthma, walked, talked normally, has been with us since 23 mos. Is loving and loveable, but argumenative, and NOTHING IS EVER HIS FAULT! The girlchild is homeschooled, seems to have seperation anxiety problems and I think sensory integration issues. She has frequest meltdowns when there is too much to handle, doesn't know what to do with her anger. I think they both have some genetic problems, plus problems caused by their parents leaving them. I don't know if that covers it enough, but it's a start. Oh, yes, the girls has noise issues, was slow at walking and talking, and everything else, but does well now. Me - over 21 Hubby - over 21 biodaughter - 24, married 3 yrs. son - almost 22, lives with-girlfriend twin1, girl - 5 1/2, anxiety, possible ADHD twin2, boy - same, ODD, ADHD [/QUOTE]
